Mar 15, 2024

Notice of Funding Opportunity Description Background The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) protects the public health by ensuring that medical products intended to be marketed in the United States are safe and effective for their intended use. FDA stakeholders are exploring innovative ways to produce scientific evidence in support of regulatory submissions, including the development of new data sources, study designs, methodologies, and technologies. FDA encourages and facilitates the use of such innovative approaches while ensuring that the scientific evidence supporting marketing approvals meet our high evidentiary standards. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act VII (PDUFA VII) commitment letter represents the product of discussions between the FDA, regulated industry, and public stakeholders, as mandated by Congress. The performance and procedural goals and other commitments specified in the PDUFA VII commitment letter apply to aspects of the human drug review program that are important for facilitating timely access to safe, effective, and innovative new medicines for patients. The commitment letter includes goals relating to the use of digital health technologies (DHTs) to support drug development and review. A DHT is a system that uses computing platforms, connectivity, software, and/or sensors, for health care and related uses. DHTs for remote data acquisition in clinical investigations can include hardware and/or software to perform one or more functions. DHTs may rely on or work with other technologies that support their operation, such as general-purpose computing platforms (e.g., smartphones) and communication networks. Among other activities relating to the use of DHTs, FDA has established a Framework for the Use of DHTs in Drug and Biological Product Development to guide the use of DHT-derived data in regulatory decision-making for drugs (hereinafter Framework ). The Framework highlights FDA’s DHT efforts including workshops and demonstration projects; engagement with stakeholders; establishment of internal processes to support the evaluation of DHTs for use in drug development; promotion of shared learning and consistency regarding DHT-based policy, procedure, and analytic tool development; and publication of guidance documents. In addition, FDA’s webpage DHTs for Drug Development (available at: https://www.fda.gov/science-research/science-and-research-special-topics/digital-health-technologies-dhts-drug-development) provides an overview of the ongoing DHT efforts, including demonstration projects. A variety of project types are welcomed under this NOFO, applicable to drugs and biologics (not devices). FDA is particularly interested in projects that evaluate the use of DHTs in drug development. Project Objectives The overarching goal of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to explore the role of DHTs (e.g., actigraphy, photography, environmental sensors) in the evaluation of new drugs. These projects may involve engagement with researchers from academia, the biopharmaceutical industry, patient groups, and other stakeholders. The objectives of these projects are to advance DHTs for clinical drug development, expand the ability to capture early manifestations of chronic diseases, determine outcomes in populations with unmet medical needs and enhance convenience for trial participants by allowing for remote data acquisition in clinical investigations. The scope includes, but is not limited to, projects that focus on: Comparing digital measurements to traditional measurements in clinical trials to evaluate drugs Developing and evaluating novel endpoints using DHTs to address unmet needs for drug clinical trials (e.g., use of environmental sensors to capture apnea in pediatric patients) Comparing metrics to evaluate continuous measurements (e.g., maximum activity and stamina) Capturing early manifestations of chronic diseases (e.g., dementia) through the use of DHTs

Date Added

Mar 15, 2024

Notice of Funding Opportunity Description The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA)is announcing the availability of up to $1,125,000 in FY 2024 to be awarded under Limited Competition to State animal food regulatory programs. The intended outcome of this NOFO is to advance efforts for a nationally integrated animal food safety system through the implementation and advancement of the Animal Food Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS) by State animal food regulatory programs. Applicants must refer to the Eligibility section of this NOFO to determine which funding track they should apply for: AFRPS Development or AFRPS Maintenance. Applicants should take sustainability into account when designing projects proposed under this cooperative agreement to maximize the longevity of resulting outcomes, resources, and program infrastructure beyond the end of the project period. The AFRPS allows for the development of risk-based animal food safety programs by establishing a uniform basis for measuring, evaluating, and improving the performance of State animal food regulatory programs in the Unites States. By achieving and maintaining implementation of these program Standards, Federal and State food regulatory programs can better direct their regulatory activities toward preventing animal food safety hazards, that can cause illness or injury to animals or humans, in facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold animal food materials/supplies. Consequently, the safety and security of the United States animal food supply and protection of human public health will improve. The AFRPS are comprised of eleven Standards (See link below in Program Goals Section) which establish foundations for the critical elements that serve as an objective framework to evaluate and improve components of a State animal food program. These elements cover the State animal food program's regulatory foundation, training, inspection program, auditing, animal food-related illness or death and emergency response, enforcement program, outreach activities, planning and resources, laboratory services, sampling program, and assessment and improvement of Standard implementation. Achieving and maintaining implementation of the program Standards will require comprehensive self-assessment on the part of a State program and will encourage continuous improvement and innovation. FDA recognizes that the time required for achieving full implementation of the AFRPS will vary between States. However, all State animal food regulatory programs will be expected to implement improvement plans to ensure continuous improvement and demonstrate that they are moving towards full implementation. State animal food regulatory programs receiving funds under this cooperative agreement will be expected to achieve and maintain full implementation within 5 total year or less of funding under an AFRPS Cooperative Agreement(s). Grantees will achieve and maintain implementation with the AFRPS (most recent published version). For the purpose of this funding opportunity, "full implementation" is defined as the State animal food regulatory program having all elements, systems, and programs, as required in the Program Elements and Documentation sections of the AFRPS; and can demonstrate the use of those elements, systems, or programs. If implementation is not achieved by the end of funding year 5, the State program will provide a detailed improvement plan on how the remaining AFRPS elements and documentation requirements will be fully implemented and demonstrated. The improvement plan will include: A detailed timeline including what needs to be accomplished to implement the element and/or documentation requirement, and when the work will be completed. The outcomes of the work provided under this cooperative agreement are as follows: 1. State animal food regulatory programs will take significant steps to achieve and maintain implementation of the AFRPS, which is recognized as a critical element to creating a national, fully integrated food safety system. 2. State animal food regulatory programs will contribute to the continuous improvement of the AFRPS through attendance at an annual face-to-face meeting, active participation in committees, and other initiatives supporting the AFRPS. 3. Develop strategies for achieving and maintaining implementation of the AFRPS that can be replicated or leveraged across state programs to promote national consistency. 4. Provide a foundation for supporting advisory/regulatory action based upon findings of regulatory activities conducted by State animal food regulatory programs. Only the following State animal food programs will be eligible to apply: State animal food regulatory programs with current FDA animal food safety inspection contracts (providing funding to State animal food regulatory programs) and are also enrolled in the AFRPS, or those that apply for an FDA animal food safety inspection contract and enroll in the AFRPS, are eligible to apply for funding under this cooperative agreement. An animal food safety inspection contract must be executed prior to this cooperative agreement being awarded. A condition of the award will be maintaining a current FDA animal food safety inspection contract in satisfactory condition throughout the cooperative agreement project period. The FDA will provide one year of funding for this project with the hopes of making another NOFO in FY 2025 to help align project objectives, outputs, reporting, terms and conditions, and project periods for all AFRPS project awardees, and to provide continued funding for awardees under this project to achieve the objectives of the project. The anticipated release of another NOFO in FY2025 will also help align project periods for awardees under this NOFO as well as those currently awarded under PAR-20-132 (for which the project period and funding will end on 6/30/2025). For AFRPS, it is anticipated that full implementation of the AFRPS will be achieved within 5 total funding years under an AFRPS Cooperative Agreement(s), based on a verification audit of your program to ensure the elements have been implemented.
